A/N: I know, I don't normally do armour but yeah, tribute to my friend (even if she doesn't think I'm hers) I_LOVE_AMOURSHIPPING enjoy! :D:D:D PS this is as if ash and Serena had never met
Serena's PoV
"Sylveon, let's go!" I said, walking out of the Pokemon Centre. It was still raining, even though some of the clouds had cleared up. The sky was beautiful... As my hair should be, if it hadn't been caught in the rain. Ugh.
Something rushed past and bumped into me, making me trip and drop my pokeballs and let pancham and braixen out.
"Hey! Watch-"
Something made me pause. The thing was a boy, but not like any boy I had met before- in Kalos anyway. I met someone who made me feel like this too, long ago, but that's another story."Oops, sorry." He said, scratching his head. He had black hair and warm brown eyes, and his pokeball-marked hat was in his other hand. A Pikachu stared from his shoulder.
"Brai-xen?" Said braixen gently.
"I'm fine," I said.
"Pancham Cham!" Yelled Pancham, glaring at the boy.
"pika..." Muttered his Pikachu.
"Pancham, it's ok!" I said. "It wasn't his fault! Return, all of you!" I returned them to their pokeballs, and tried to stand, but slipped on a puddle. Now my dress was half wet too. Great.
"Here, you need some help?" He leant down, and held his hand out. I hesitated. He probably didn't know what that meant to a girl. To us Kalosian girls, a hand from a boy was a sign that you had a lover on your tail... Or not. Sometimes it was just a false alarm, but every time it happened our, or more specifically mine, hearts would start pounding like crazy. I could feel myself blushing already. Get a grip, Serena! I thought in my head. Even though he probably (or more likely certainly) would have noticed me blushing already, I took his hand.
It was a warm hand, and gave off a strong sense of strength and firmness. As I stood up, it felt like a bench or something, only softer, and warmer, and benches didn't make me blush like crazy.
"Uhh...If you don't mind me asking, what's you're name?" I asked.
"I'm fine with that." He said cheerfully. "I'm Ash, and this is my partner pikachu!"
"Pika Pikachu!" Cried Pikachu happily. I noticed the lightening-bolt shaped tail, indicating it was a male.
"Aww, he's so sweet!" I said, patting him on his head.
"Pika!" He yelled.
"He likes being petted on the tail the most, don't you, Pika-pal?"
"Pi Pikachu!"
I tried stroking the base of the tail. Ash was right. The little yellow Pokemon let out a "CHA!" Of happiness. Not to mention cuteness.
"I'm Serena, by the way." I said, for some reason much happier than I was before. Somehow this boy was magically cheering me up.
"Nice to meet you, Serena." Ash said, putting his cap back on. Pikachu climbed on his shoulder once more. "Say, could you show me around Kalos? I've only just arrived..."
He was asking me? I blushed bright red. I was pretty sure most people were staring at me, but Ash didn't seem to be bothered. I was though. I could feel my insides squirming.
"S-sure!" I stammered. Dammit. I really needed to be less, I dunno, blushy around guys.
"Great!" He took my hand in his warm one, and I took him along toward a nearby cafe I knew. I swear, that moment, I could hear bells ringing, pidoves cooing and saw a rainbow in the sky.
What do you think? Deliciousberryshipping up next! :D:D:D
